Vital Quotes:

''We need to be up and around the promotion places - that's where we want to be and where we should be.

''So far, though, we have been inconsistent. We've only shown flashes of what we can do in the first 10 league games and we're looking to be better over the next 10.

''But the games are always big wherever you are.

''If you're top you want to cement your position, if you're bottom you want to be climbing up and if you're where we are, you want to be winning your next two or three to get up to the promotion places.''

Match Facts & Stats

Crewe are one place below us in 11th place with the same amount of points.

They also suffered a defeat on the weekend, 2-0 away at Yeovil.

Prior to that, they won 3 on the bounce including a 2-0 win in the Carling Cup over Premiership side Wigan.

Match Prediction:

It should be a close game as both sides have had a similar start to the season.

Both sides suffered defeat on Saturday so I'm predicting a 1-1 draw with either side unable to have the edge to get a win.
